What is being bought

Published requirement description

The Center for Device Thermography and Reliability is a research group within the Faculty of Science and Engineering at the University of Bristol. It is one of the UK’s leading groups in the research fields of power electronics and associated materials research, helping progress towards the improvement of charging technologies and associated net-zero carbon goals. Recent investment in the form of major new grants has provided an opportunity to procure new equipment to help deliver the goals of these projects, with part of this enabling greater use of semiconductor device manufacturing within the University of Bristol Cleanroom.

A contract has been awarded for a single UV laser writer, with associated hardware and software for operation, to enable the computer-controlled exposure of wafers, photomask blanks and sample pieces coated in photoresist.
